ToxicHot 6,444 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 This should've been the actual Chromatica tracklist: Ā Chromatica I Alice Rain On Me Sour Candy Free Woman Babylon Chromatica II Stupid Love 911 Plastic Doll Replay Enigma Chromatica III Fun Tonight Sine From Above 1000 Doves Love Me Right (Bonus) Ā I honestly feel like the actual tracklist doesn't flow as easily as it should. Fun Tonight is actually sad and ballad-ish, I would put it in the 3rd act. And Babylon is a good closing track but would work better after Free Woman rather than 1000 Doves. Sour Candy feels weird to me in-between Plastic Doll and Enigma, I think it should be after Rain On Me (among a few other changes). I definitely feelĀ like ARTPOP's tracklist is smoother and flowsĀ a LOTĀ better. dOnT sAd ReAcT mE 2 bE sHaDy i WiLL RePoRt U!!1! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get how thematically it works, like the applause at the end of a show.Ā but sonically AND thematically Gypsy is a much better closing track and makes Applause feel tacked on. It sounds like if she were to stick ScheiBe after TEOG on BTW or something lol I know itās not the case, but itās placement at the end feels like āwell itās a single that we made as a lead without figuring out how itād fit the album tracklist, lets just tack it on at the end.ā Like Stupid Hoe by Nicki lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy would've been good I guess but with ARTPOP feels like an encore, kind of like Marry The Night after The Edge of Glory at the Born This Way Ball. It works!

The songs on the third act represent ballads don't they? Except Babylon. dOnT sAd ReAcT mE 2 bE sHaDy i WiLL RePoRt U!!1! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think it fits best in the second act, but someone else I was talking to said third and had valid reasons. So it can be argued different ways, itās just not because of it being a balladĀ realityās tight if the music is right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
